SIX houses, six counties: With staycations still on the agenda, Munster Eye susses out potential holiday homes

Kincora Harbour Munster Eye

WITH 2021 revving up to be even more challenging than last year and no prospect of foreign travel anytime soon, we reckoned a sensible way for Munster Eye to kick off the New Year was to take a look at some properties that offer the prospect of your very own bolthole in which to holiday at home. 

There's a mix of coastal and inland, from stunning Hogs Head, to a thatch in Holycross, to a converted stables in the grounds of a big house that once hosted Jackie O. There's also a lovely Mews in Oysterhaven, a marina-side apartment in Co Clare or a "project" home in Co Limerick. Plenty to go around, with or without a Lotto win, writes Deputy Property Editor Catherine Shanahan.
